Why AI risk management needs its own approach

Artificial intelligence introduces risks that traditional risk frameworks were not built to catch: bias in training data, security threats specific to model behaviour, and transparency obligations that don't map cleanly onto existing IT risk categories. This course builds on general risk management practice rather than starting from scratch.

  • Assess AI-related risk using recognised risk management frameworks
  • Design and implement AI risk mitigation measures
  • Align AI risk management with regulatory compliance requirements
